<p>It might interest list members to know that the Grand Hotel in Taipei now stands on the grounds of what was once the Taiwan shintō shrine (台灣神社). I've never heard of the 1974 edict, if anything I would have expected such an order to come down decades earlier, maybe the 1950s? At any rate, those interested in stories like this should check out Joe Allen's book <em>Taipei: City of Displacements</em>. The story of the horse in a park resonates in particular with the incomplete erasure of Japanese flags.</p>
